Only twice before in the Heisman’s 75-year history has a Baylor player significantly factored in the balloting. Quarterback Larry Isbell finished seventh in 1951, and quarterback Don Trull finished fourth in 1963. (Trull placed ahead of Dick Butkus that year, but lost the award to Roger Staubach.)

By now, you probably know RG3’s resume. He’s passed for a school-record 3,998 yards and 36 touchdowns with just six interceptions, and leads the nation with a 192.31 passing efficiency that is on pace to shatter the NCAA record. He has also rushed for 644 yards and nine touchdowns, making him the nation’s leader in points responsibility with 22.67 per game. In all, his efforts have helped lead Baylor to a No. 12 national ranking and the program’s first nine-win season since 1986.
